I'm sad these don't exist anymore, but I visited one in Toronto when I was little.
@@AlexaPerezx Sadly no.
You And Me Both.
Wow, so Kermit was just an exaggeration of Jim Henson's own voice!!?
I knew about the Muppet Stuff store, although I never got a chance to visit. I thought there was only ever the one location in New York. I didn't realize that the store used a video like this to try to expand to more than one location. I also didn't know until reading the comments that they were successful enough to at least get another store in Toronto!
In a way, Jim was once again ahead of his time, as the Disney Store and the Warner Bros. Store would become quite popular in the '90s. Alas, Muppet Stuff closed in 1993 just before the rise to popularity of such stores, and neither of the other two stores mentioned are around anymore either.
That's Richard Hunt playing both Beaker and Sweetums. Hunt was quite the versatile performer. In a scene from "60 Minutes" set inside the Muppet workshop, Hunt played all the characters in that scene as well, including the Muppet Newsman, a character that was normally Jim's!
Thanks for sharing this forgotten little bit of Muppet history!
I wonder if the Muppets are popular in Japan. Because “character goods” stores are a reasonably common thing in Japan.
Thanks so much for mentioning the incredible Richard Hunt...an incredible performer and human ... Xx
I’ll Miss That Place.
Finding new Muppet media always makes me happy. Thank you!
So cute - 4:58 to 5:08 😍😍😍
Wow.
I think everybody hears his man in almost every VHS Trailers.
That would have been so cool to be a franchise owner..
4:59 this is strangely adorable
I love the muppets.
Heaven
that was fun...thanks! Xx
The Muppets had their own store? If they still had one to this very day and didn’t sell out to Disney, it would include merchandise based on future Henson projects.
Boo its not 50fps!
